2. What is the difference between "Clear-Transparent Grit II, Comfort Grip" and "Clear-Transparent Grit, Super Grip"?


The "Clear-Transparent Grit, Super Grip" offers our most aggressive traction. It is made from our special blend of rubber and aluminum oxide materials. Because of its aggressive traction, the "Clear-Transparent Grit, Super Grip" may cling to socks or stockings.

The "Clear-Transparent Grit II, Comfort Grip" is most transparent (30% more transparent) when compared with the "Clear-Transparent Grit, Super Grip". So you’ll see more of your stair treads through the non-slip solution. Made from a proprietary rubber compound, the "Clear-Transparent Grit II, Comfort Grip" naturally repels most dirt and stays clean longer. It will not cling to socks or stockings and it is very comfortable on bare skin. Both solutions are certified by the National Floor Safety Institute to provide adequate traction in the home or business/commercial environment.

We highly recommend the "Clear-Transparent Grit II, Comfort Grip" if you have toddlers. Also the majority of pet owners choose the "Clear-Transparent Grit II, Comfort Grip" because it repels dirt and the traction is not harsh.

5. What is the difference between Rounded Corners vs. Square Corners?

Rounded Corners have a slight radius as indicated in comparison below. Frankly the technology has improved so much that the difference between the two is largely aesthetic. It used to be that the rounded corners improved product life but this is no longer the case. So you’ll be fine with either rounded or square corners. We currently offer just one size with rounded corners and it is 6” x 24” (WxL).
